Spyder Veloce. Like most Alfas of that time it was "one of only six special bodied cars of its type ever made" <g> and it was absolutely wonderful, particularly on our all night drives up to the race track in Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin. Even if it had no heater. And wouldn't start if you parked it in the shade or near a puddle. Those were the days. I think. <old-timer switch off> --Bob ==On Wed, Feb 3, 2010 at 1:41 AM, Charlie Chan <topoxforddoc at btinternet.com> wrote: > Great cars, great heritage, shame about the Alfasud rust debacle in the > late > 70s (similar to the Lancia Beta sadly).
